When Do You Need an Investigator? Real Life Scenarios

Not sure if you need help? You’re not alone.

Most people don’t wake up thinking they’ll need an investigator. But then something happens. Money goes missing. A person’s story doesn’t add up. Someone disappears. Suddenly, you need answers that you can’t get on your own.

That’s where we come in. We specialize in uncovering the truth when it matters most—whether it’s protecting your business, safeguarding your family, or getting the evidence you need for a legal case. Every investigation is handled with complete confidentiality, professionalism, and respect for your situation.

Here are real scenarios where our services make all the difference. If any of these sound familiar, we can help.

Fraud & Financial Investigations

We investigate financial crimes and misconduct—following money trails, uncovering fraud schemes, and gathering evidence of theft or deception.

You might need this when:

The Bookkeeper Problem: tour company’s bookkeeper has been with you for years. Lately, she’s been evasive about reports and suddenly bought a new car. Your accountant flags unusual transactions. You need to know if you’re being stolen from—without tipping anyone off.

Identity Theft Nightmare: you’re applying for a loan and discover accounts you never opened. Someone’s been using your name to rack up debt. You need to find out who, how, and get evidence for law enforcement.

The Partner You Can’t Trust: your business partner’s personal expenses keep appearing on company cards. Money’s tight but their lifestyle isn’t. You need proof before you confront them or take legal action.

Background Checks & Due Diligence

We verify identities, credentials, and histories—helping you make informed decisions before hiring, investing, or entering important relationships.

You might need this when:

The “Perfect” Executive: you’re about to hire a CFO with an impressive resume. But something feels off about their last job “exit.” Before you hand over financial control, you need the real story.

Before the Big Investment: a company wants you to invest six figures in their venture. The pitch is great, but can you trust them? You need to verify their claims, check their track record, and see if there are red flags you’re missing.

Your Daughter’s New Boyfriend: she’s moving fast with someone who seems charming but has a vague past. You’re not trying to interfere, but something feels wrong. You need peace of mind—or confirmation of your concerns.

Surveillance & Field Work

We conduct discreet, professional surveillance—documenting activities and behaviors with detailed reports and evidence you can use.

You might need this when:

The Workers’ Comp Claim: your employee claims a back injury prevents them from working. Meanwhile, someone saw them loading furniture into a truck. You need documentation before the insurance claim costs you thousands.

Custody Battle Evidence: your ex has the kids every other weekend. They promised to stop drinking, but your daughter mentioned “beer cans” during their last visit. You need proof to protect your children.

The Cheating Spouse: late nights at work. New passwords on everything. Your gut says something’s wrong, but you need to know for sure before confronting them or filing for divorce.

Digital & Online Investigations

We analyze digital footprints and online activity—uncovering hidden profiles, verifying identities, and tracking what people do on the internet.

You might need this when:

The Online Romance: you’ve been dating someone for months online. They’re ready to meet, asking for money for the plane ticket. Before you send anything, you need to verify they’re who they claim to be.

Reputation Management: someone’s posting lies about your business online under fake accounts. Sales are dropping. You need to identify who’s behind it and gather evidence for legal action.

The Mysterious Applicant: a job candidate’s social media is squeaky clean—maybe too clean. You need to see if there are hidden profiles or online behavior that contradicts their professional image.

Finding Missing People

We locate individuals when traditional methods fail—tracking down missing persons, witnesses, or anyone who’s become unreachable.

You might need this when:

Family Member Who Disappeared: your brother walked out after an argument five years ago. Your mother is ill and asking for him. Last known address is a dead end. You need to find him before it’s too late.

The Debtor Who Vanished: someone owes you $50,000. They’ve stopped answering calls, moved without notice, and deleted their social media. You have a judgment but can’t serve it because you can’t find them.

Witness to an Accident: you were hit by a drunk driver. The only witness gave a statement but disappeared before the trial. Your lawyer needs them to testify, but all contact info is outdated.

Conclusion

If any of these scenarios hit close to home, we can help.

Every case is handled with complete confidentiality and professionalism.
